JetBoatPilot Lateral Thruster Debut!!

[druppert]

Certainly seems to have solved Yamaha's Achilles Heel. Next he can engineer a fix to the AR tower since he clearly has more engineering savvy than them

That last video was just amazing

I'm really tempted to advertise that once you install Thrust Vectors and Lateral Thrusters on your Yamaha Jet Boat you will own the most maneuverable boat on the planet!!!!!

wow that's awesome @JetBoatPilot . Send that video to Chaparral so they can update their biased Vortex vs Yamaha marketing video.

 

[JetBoatPilot]

@MattFX4 yeah that would be funny!

Here are pictures of the trim templates and a fin that we trimmed here with simple tools you're likely to have laying around the house. Please forgive the crudity of the trim job.

I saw the template and thought "why do you need to cut off the bottom and side at a hard 90° angle"..... then I realized that it was just the edge of the paper! Hopefully everyone else is smarter than me!

Will thrust vectors work with Gatlin wake wedge.

What is the cut off date for the pre-production sale?

I thought the same thing at first: "Wow! That's a lot of material to remove!"

Then I scrolled to your post and said "Oh. Duuuuuuh."

My only excuse is that I'm a couple of cups of coffee short of "normal" right now...

Here are some pictures of XV version 1 fins that we trimmed.

@Brad Dunn no they will not. Sorry about that.

Will thrust vectors work with Gatlin wake wedge.

Depends on the boat. 2011 to current 210 Series no. All other boats they do work with.

 

[JetBoatPilot]

@jcyamaharider I'm glad to hear that our Thrust Vectors will work with some boats equipped with the wake wedge. Can you give me a listing of boats that will work so we can update our sales team?

I have the 2016 242x , thrust vectors will fit? do they need to be down all the time? if so what issues does this cause? Thank you.

 

[bobbie]

@JetBoatPilot . Order placed for both thrust vectors and lateral thrusters. Thanks will! Can't wait to try the lateral thrusters out! I'm not winterizing until they are sent!

 

[JetBoatPilot]

@bobbie I am really looking forward to hearing your feedback thank you for your business.

 

[jcyamaharider]

Brad your boat is fine.
